SHIKIMIKIE

So I've been liking this guy that I met couple of months ago (May). Well 4 months ago, he told me that he's not leading me on or something because I noticed that our conversation is kind of a lot deeper and you know (or maybe I was just assuming and expecting a lot). But apparently, he admitted that he's just a flirt or whatever like that. The next day, I asked him if he meant what he said and he said he was drunk but he didn't directly answer my question. So I told him that drunk people speak the truth and he told me that most of the time, he's still in control and he's good at lying while drunk.

We continued talking because I'm stupid and like last November I guess, he told me that he's liking this girl and would tell me stuff like about the girl almost everyday. One day he asked me if I like him (he don't have an idea), I said I don't know since he warned me not to like him and stuff like that. I told him he shouldn't flirt with me anymore since that girl wouldn't be very happy to know that he's flirting with someone. We stopped talking for like 2 days but continued talking anyways.

I think last December, I asked him about that particular girl and he told me he almost forgot about her and that he's liking another girl and yeah he would tell me stuff about that new girl again. I think the girl likes him too.

Just last last week, he told me that he do like me but didn't want to pursue because he don't want to complicate things between the two of us. Well the funny thing is he still doesn't stop telling me about that last girl. Douche!

I freaking hate Korean girls with a lot of AEGYO (Korean cuteness annoying whatever). A little is okay. It's fine. I think it's normal. But seriously? If you're like doing it too much, it's freaking annoying!! I mean, I think Korean girls are super cute. I mean, you feel me right? But with them being clingy to guys and stuff like that? Are you kidding me? They need to sit back and relax and eat some kimchi for some reason. They need to keep it cool. They need to stop trying hard. They're cute the way they look so acting/speaking cute is just way too redundant!

Are you a baby? Why do you speak like a fetus or something like that? (exaggeration)

Oh! Being cute is tolerable. What I can't take is that they're totally different person behind a guy that they're trying to seduce or whatever. They're usually a bitch.

It's not that you have to impress me or whatever, it's...? I don't even know. I know Korean boys like it but girl, you don't have to impress guys too. Be yourself! Be good!

I'm not generalizing Korean girls though. I have few friends and they're totally nice and they hate aegyo as well. See?

Call center is an in demand job in the Philippines. It is hard at first but you will get used to it the next day. That fast! Who will not be able to learn that fast when you will make a hundred or more calls a day right? You'll do good.

I have been there only for a month but it gave me the experience of a lifetime. HEAVY! I met people who are nice,  funny and friendly along the way. I met great trainers, team leaders and supervisors who are always there to check what is happening and sometimes the only motivation I have to continue calling. My friends would know why. Hahaha

My company is somehow great in a sense that we do not do hard selling. Only 3 rebuttals and if the client doesn’t agree with that, we will hang up and dispose the call. Hard to explain but yeah that is how it goes. Sometimes I do not stick with 3 though. Sorry.

I am an outbound caller therefore I got to have something that will make the client stay on the line without them thinking that I am gonna sell them something. Well, I am not actually selling them something, I just want to know if they are diabetic or if there is anybody in their household who is before I try to deal with their insurances which then will cover the cost for them and that is if they are indeed eligible for the campaign that our organization (also part of the company) is representing. Our company is offering a talking glucose meter (glucometer) by the way. No, I’m not even selling you something here. Hahaha. Like any other outbound call centers, we do have quotas as well. Not that hard to achieve but you gotta work hard for it. We do have eliminations and it happens every week. Agents who were not able to reach for the quota will be eliminated. No, terminated. And just like what one of supervisor said, If the job is for you, it’s for you.

There you have it. A small view of my work experience as a call center agent. Thank you for reading. Have a nice day.
